‘We want our name to reflect our philosophy here, and our focus is firmly on enablement, and empowering people.’

As part of its relaunch, the centre opened its doors to users and members of the public, who had the chance to take a look around and see what help and support is provided.

Special guests Alan Knight from Portsmouth Football Club, Ray Westbrook from England Amputee Football Association and Ursula Ward, chief executive of Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust, which runs the centre, were there.

Each year the centre sees about 1,600 patients each year, including adults and children.

Among those who have been supported by the centre is eight-year-old Taliya Anyia-Dawkins, who was born without her left hand.

Taliya, from Gosport, now has a prosthetic hand, which means she can cartwheel and do handstands.
